Tu ne te souviendras pas

A conference-performance by Émilie Franceschin

les Abattoirs
Auditorium
Free entrance

Émilie Franceschin presents a conference-performance specially conceived for the artist's book project Tu ne te souviendras. The latter stems from a reflection on the trace in performance.

Émilie Franceschin has undertaken a project of freezing the clothes of performances as a process of archiving them. These various researches between performances, installation, photographs led her to conceive an artist's book that goes beyond the sole documentation of this project.

In collaboration with the graphic designers Rovo, this book was conceived in an evolving and modifiable dimension keeping this idea of transformation and movement present in her artistic work. It can be activated and visible in various ways: booklet / plan / object in space.

This time of conference - performance presented within the framework of the Jeudis des Abattoirs will allow to deploy and activate this reality "printed" in the book.

Tu ne te souviendras pas has received a grant for creation from the Occitanie Region. Lieu-commun artist-run-space and the Chapelle Saint-Jacques are financial partners of the project. Graphic design and photographs by Damien Aspe, text by Valérie Mazouin, printing and finishing by Lézard graphique and Reprint. Published in 100 copies, 5 of which are numbered, signed and associated with a performance.

Emilie Franceschin was born in 1983, she lives and works in Toulouse.

After obtaining her DNSEP at the Beaux-Arts de Toulouse in 2007, she continued her artistic work in the field of performance. She has participated in various performance festivals in Germany, Italy, Canada etc. and has also worked in galleries and various art centers throughout France. In 2014, she produced an edition with the graphic designers Rovo, on nine years of work on performance, entitled Du coeur à l'ouvrage.

Her performance work concerns the action of performance, the action of performing. His performances often involve gestures that aim to overturn, degrade, and lower by ridicule, dirtiness, or trampling what may be attractive or admired.

It is played at each moment its opposite, to any determination, its negation.

His drawings also create a displacement of perspective or an indifferentiation between the high and the low, the glorious and the infamous, the attraction and the repulsion, the constraint and the desire.
